4th day on da Inca Trail

Day 4- woke up at 3:30. Shame because it was the only night I can remember sleeping, and a lot warmer because it was the lowest altitude we slept. We arrived at the Sun Gate around 7. We wanted to keep moving but finally stopped at a look at for longer than 5 seconds so I put my contacts in, oh, that's what it looks like. Got down to Machu Pichu at like 830. Registered then toured around for what was supposed to be two hours, turned out more like over 3 hour tour. But it was amazing. A fascinating site. Cannot express how cool it was. Split up from the group, then met back down for drinks in Aguas Calientes. Said bye to the group- sad knowing well never see them again. Then we...um shopped...again. There's not much else to do. We bought fruit for dinner, and then just stuff. Train tomorrow to Ollantambo, or somethig like that.
Our legs hurt so bad we can barely walk. But it was such an accomplishment. Go us.
